Cax 80 no upload speed on 5ghz. Xfinity gigabit
When I run a speed test via any site, I don't get an upload speed at all.
2.5ghz and lan both work fine.
Even 5ghz works except in those instances, uploading data.
I have done multiple factory resets, performed optimum mtu tests, traffic meter is off, double checked my channels and I'm the only person on my channel of 36. Smart band is off, my router/modem is literally right next to me without interference around it.
Appreciate any help, I've scoured forums without a solution.
Everything is updated to current available firmware
Everything looks well, don't understand how to fix this. Netgear hasn't been any help.
Thanks

Re: Cax 80 no upload speed on 5ghz. Xfinity gigabit
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
How is the Basic and Advanced Wireless settings configured on the modems web page?
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 161 channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Please post a copy and paste of the modems connection status and event log page.

Re: Cax 80 no upload speed on 5ghz. Xfinity gigabit
Firmware V2.1.5.2
I've tried different channels and if I recall correctly there was 4-5 neighboring signals on 5ghz using channel 40. I am on 36. 2.4ghz is set to auto and if memory serves it was also on the channel with none to little traffic. I am getting 100% signal on all the channels I tried as well. I tried to copy paste the info like previously but it isn't working out lol. Optimum MTU was good at 1500 with no fragmentation.
In advanced settings the only setting that I changed was opening ports for Nintendo switch and ps5. Did not make a difference for my issue with or without these.
Kind of stumped lol. Maybe just my phone? Though it used to work fine.
I appreciate the help!

Also for background, I returned a cax30 that was previously working flawlessly until a recent firmware that made my 5ghz unusable entirely. So I returned that and got the cax80 (it was also more compatible for my xfinity plan). This upload thing is the only problem I'm having with it.

Re: Cax 80 no upload speed on 5ghz. Xfinity gigabit
I did set to manual and the channels you suggested, except for 161(not an option for me). Same results. If I try and send videos it will slowly buffer the upload until it halts. I switch over to 2.4 or mobile data and it will successfully upload. If I leave it on the 5ghz it will eventually fail/error.

It's a disgrace that no firmware update has been released for a serious issue that has caused many customers a lot of frustration for over more than two years. And the solution is known already several months.
